Hello, I was hoping just to ask a few questions. I've just received a HPI sprint 2 flux from ebay as my first R/C car for a while and my first electric!

I just was wondering if when rolling the car it should feel a bit "lumpy" it does seem to roll smoothly, and the pinion gear when not meshed with the spur seems to rotate with the magnets making it a bit "lumpy". Is this normal?

I am also wondering how to check that its in LiPo mode, as I cant work out how to get into the ESC menu as the manual shows there being a button, which I can seem to find?

And finally would the HPI Flux Reload Pro would be able to help me in the ESC menu? or would that not work for that kind of thing?

Thanks for taking the time to look!

New?
Used?
You have a manual -
Is the ESC in your car the same as the manual?

Sorry, It was brought used, however it has only been used once from the previous owner. The ESC show in the manual is the one with an external button, which is the same as the instruction for the car which I downloaded from HPI. However the ESC on the car has no button/switch. It simply turns on once the battery is connected.

NO, the ESC is all black with a orange "vapor" label on the outside edge. The cooling fins are black and are about 3/4 inch high. also has the 3 bullet connectors on the right hand side. if you search HPI sprint 2 ESC on google images, there is one on there.

Well It was the UK site for the manual download. and both showed the programming via a button nex to the ESC block. If you PM your email, I'll send you pics of what the manual shows and what is on the car.
cheers
